True Life-long Friend

My mom received a Christmas card today from a woman she has known for most of her life. When my mother was 5 years old, she started going to dance classes with the then little girl who was just a year older. There were many times in later years when their lives crossed paths in very interesting ways. My mom joyfully told me about her and said she is the only person who has remained in touch for the whole time – over 80 years. What a blessing.
